Warm farm stay

Cosy house which was clean and fully equipped. Alpacas, sheep and chickens on the property land added to the charm. Kids enjoyed walking around the acreage and looking for the sheep in the back. There is a fully fenced yard for our large dog (away from the livestock) to burn off some energy as well.

Great farm stay

Lovely property owners, great communication leading up to our stay. The house was very well appointed, beautiful linen and comfy beds. Kitchen was excellent including basic supplies, cereal, coffee and biscuits. The sheep, alpacas, chickens and a turkey nearby the house were very entertaining. It was an easy drive into Canberra, to see the signs and shops. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A getaway from the hustle & bustle of city life, quiet, located unpolluted environment

Host was very welcoming, conveyed details access the property, the house was exceptionally clean with all required amenities. Didn’t interact with the animals as they are fenced, a lovely beautiful cottage amidst greenery. The location is ideal as it’s a decent drive to all major tourist spots at Canberra. Overall, we had a very pleasant & great weekend

It was a 2 bedroom house with 2 ensuited bedrooms. The house had absolutely everything you could want for and so very, very clean. Spotless. In a quiet rural area with Arthur and Angelo running 20 sheep and 3 llamas. Birds galore. If you are looking to get away from it all this is the place! A big definite 10 from us!!!!
